#4.Trapped in a Hamster Wheel Economy

The science behind the squeeze: debt cycles, behavioral economics, and why the Fed can't save us.

The investigation covers how four decades of wage stagnation and compounding cost increases created the conditions for $18.8 trillion in household debt, what behavioral economics reveals about why conspicuous spending runs deepest where financial security is thinnest, and why stagflation breaks the Federal Reserve’s two mandates simultaneously, leaving ordinary households to absorb the cost of an impossible choice. No solutions here. Just the full picture.
